Longtime glaucoma patient
After a month I was put on
Timoptol
. Stayed on these for 10 years then my vision was impaired, happening gradually, till I could see very little. I’d cataracts by this time. Hadn’t reached 40years of age. By this point I’d been put in touch with Social worker for the blind.

heartburn on Timolol drops?
I have narrow angles, pressure 15 and had Iridotomy a few weeks ago, I was given steroid drops after and on my follow up I now have high pressure 30 which I didn't have before so consultant thinks its the steroid drops. I've finished them now and she has prescribed Timolol drops for a short time to reduce

Dorzolomide/timolol switched from drop a bottle to single unit doses
In my repeat prescriptions, I have been switched from the 5ML dropper bottle to single unit doses. I wasn’t contacted by my GP first so I have no idea why, but because they’re single unit doses and I have to use it morning and night, effectively I have only been provided with half what I usually get

latanoprost vs timolol
My 85 year old mother has been on latanoprost for 2 months. She developed a condition where her left eye now looks inwards towards her nose. It may be palsy of the sixth nerve. Has anyone else ever had similar symptoms? Also, is anyone having good results using timolol instead? Thank you for sharing

Glaucoma and hayfever nasal spray
Excellent forum, thanks; I can't understand why I haven't found it previously. I have glaucoma in one eye, IOP in both eyes was previously managed by bimatoprost / timolol eye drops. My IOP followed the familiar path of slowly increasing over the years, commenced treatment with bimatoprost / timolol

Hylo Tear before eye drops
I take Timolol twice a day (10 am & 10pm). One day a week I need to be out by 9.15 and so take my Timolol early. As I do voluntary work on a local Nature Reserve it is not a very appropriate place to be taking the Hylo Tear. So I would like to administer the lubricant BEFORE the Timolol. While the instructions

Tissue Press Method for Instilling Eyedrops
Hello from Canada. While I am new here, I am not new to glaucoma. I’ve been taking drops for 10 years and have had two SLT surgeries. Covid delays have really slowed testing and seeing an opthamologist so I am really not sure about the progression of my glaucoma. I have to wait until April for a visual

Par Plana Vitrectomy Operation.
Hello I’m fairly new to this site and you all seem such a cohesive and friendly family. I was diagnosed with pseudoexfoliation glaucoma in July of this year following a couple of subconjunctival haemorrhages in my left eye. It’s stable now with Dorzolamide/Timolol eyedrops and I visit the Eye Clinic

Timolol side effects?
From the day I was diagnosed with glaucoma about two months ago my eyesight seems worse, with glare, blurriness and dry, gritty eyes. That was also the day I was switched from latanoprost to latanoprost/timolol. Can timolol cause all of the above? I had SLT three weeks ago and I am waiting for check-up

Trabeculectomy
Hi, Just had a field vision test showing more sight loss in 1 eye and increased pressure. I have been on latanoprost and timolol but consultant has now added brinzolomide but tells me if that does not help I need a trabulectomy. (Which he longer does as not now working for NHS) My concern is that

Trabeculectomy recovery
Hello everyone I'm now nearly 8 weeks post op from a combined lens extraction and trabeculectomy in my right eye. Recovery has been... a process but so far everything has been going well but I'm a little concerned as my eyeball has become quite hard/firm when I try to massage it, just over the last

This might end your uveitis problems
Several times a year I had to go to eye causality and get treated (maxidex,
timoptol
) with sometimes iop up to 54. I was tested for virtually everything that might triggers this.
